Confessions of a PYP Teacher
This podcast is for anyone who is seeking ways to design learning that promotes learner independence. It began as a passion project to help teachers during the pandemic and has transformed how I look at learning within my practice. Each episode is 15 to 30 minutes long with thoughtful ideas and some tips to apply back to your practice. The episodes are largely based on the IB Primary Years Programme, but good teaching is for everyone. Even if you are teaching in a different type of program or government school, you can easily adapt the ideas to your learning context. It just requires a bit of creativity and open-mindedness. Happy Listening! For more ideas, visit lugerlach.com.

Welcome back to Confessions of a PYP Teacher and the fifteenth episode in our well-being series.
As we come to the end of this series, we have spent time sitting with some heavy, but very real parts of learning and teaching.
We have explored worry, fear, panic, anxiety, stress, burnout, boreout, and trauma. We have looked closely at what they can look like in our classrooms, and how easily they can be missed, misunderstood, or mislabeled.
If we are honest, there may have been moments where we recognized ourselves in those descriptions too.
That is part of our work.
Because well-being in a PYP school has never been about getting it right all the time. It is about learning to notice, to respond, and to grow with more awareness and care.
